Would be cool having a game reviewer here on lemmy :)

Wow, 0 user reviews

“My daughters ordered a Trump watch and after 5 months of waiting have not received anything. It’s a shame this company is not holding to President Trump’s high standards. This was a present for my 80th birthday!” wrote one MAGA supporter on July 14.

Nope, no intelligence was found here.

A new mason jar and a pony, please.

This is because every single thing has to be tested and approved to death in a car.

This is tesla though, how much testing do they actually do before passing it to customers for free QA?

Oh right, it's a different post, my bad.

Thanks!

Wait what? Why?

Well apparently asia is the source of a lot of scraping traffic, and they're an European focused website, so they went with the nuclear option of blocking the entire continent and change. Never mind that as one of the bigger instances on the Threadiverse, they're degrading the user experience for an entire continent. I brought the issue up to them previously, but they didn't seem too concerned about it.

Example of degraded user experience for Asia:

No need to go into conspiracy theories. I already explained why they're doing it, and I understand it even if I disagree strongly with their decision.

Why hilarious?

The issues could cascade beyond the design. The auto manufacturing industry operates on strict production schedules. Though it builds in time to validate and test whatever new features come in each new model, the sudden intro of a design change late in the process could throw off the delicate timetable.

FFS, it's a bloody door handle, not full self driving tech. Author is full of BS.

Taking bets on whether it's Godzilla or Cthulu that's about to arise from the seafloor

Thanks!

it’s still an argument that relies on “everyone does it ergo it must be ok”, which wouldn’t stand on its own terms either.

Given that's how the entire Internet works, it does stand on its own terms. The UK isn't influential enough to force the entire Internet to follow suit. They can take it or leave it.

And as a website you don't deal with any of that, you just implement an ad platform's ad window and they serve whatever regional ads are relevant to your visitors. So yes, practically all websites with advertising would be operating in every country worldwide, by your logic.

Can somebody reupload the image at a non-feddit.org host? Feddit is incredibly annoying in that it geoblocks most of Asia.

Only in the US. The rest of the world will get them at a reasonable price.

Article could be better written. The govt site is clear it's about new items.
